Take Your Best Shot: The Moon Landings Were A HOAX!

Go outside in the sand. Go to a golf course and get in a sandtrap, I don't care, but make a video of you jumping that DUPLICATES (albeit at a
much higher gravity) those effects and THEN you will have proven it.

Until then it's just what I say and what you say.

Why don't you go out and record yourself hopping in the sand. After all, you are the one claiming that the video looks fake. Provide a video
showing what it should look like. I've explained the physics of it.

And I was actually going to leave your little thread alone DJ because I know you like feeling all superior, but you walked right into it with the
'look at the how little effort and knee-bend is required.' LOL. Indeed.

In the November 1967 issue of Science Digest, an article appeared by James R. Berry entitled, "How to Walk on the Moon."1 In it, Berry predicted
that men would be able to make 14-foot slow-motionleaps, perform backflips and other gymnastics like professionals, and be able to easily move up
ladders and poles with their arms. Another prediction was given in 1969 by the Writers of U.S. News & World Report in U.S. on the Moon: With gravity
on the moon only one-sixth as strong as it is on earth, a home-run hitter in a lunar baseball game could drive a ball well over half a mile. A
golfer's drive from the tee would sail clear over the horizon.

I guess he didn't take the space suits into account. Nothing was known about locomotion under reduced gravity back in 1967. Sure, they did
experiments with inclined planes and counterweights, but that's not the same thing as having an infinite degree of freedom, restricting space suits
and a powdery surface that doesn't provide much traction.

A standing vertical jump of at least 18 inches on Earth can be accomplished by exerting an upward force of around 500 pounds by a 185-pound person. .
Since a jump from a standing vertical position only requires the knees to bend slightly, the spacesuits would not have hampered the astronauts
appreciably. The televised pictures of John Young on the Moon indicated that he was able to utilize his arms and legs for jumping in an essentially
normal manner. . This means that even with the astronaut gear, Young should have been able to jump over six feet off the ground if the Moon had
one-sixth of the Earth's gravity. In actuality, his efforts lifted him at most 18 inches off the ground.

The obvious way to test this would be to suit up and see how high you can jump on Earth. Do this, and jump 18 inches and you will have strong evidence
that the footage was faked.

A photo appeared in the December 12, 1969 issue Of Life magazine showing Apollo 12 astronaut Alan Bean carrying a barbell-shaped package of
instruments which allegedly weighed 190 Earth pounds. The accompanying statement that it had a Moon weight of only 30 pounds does not seem consistent
with the photo which shows a noticeable bow in the approximately 1-inch bar. The movie film of this event is even more revealing. As Bean carried the
instrument package across the lunar surface, the bar bent up and down, strained by the heavy burden on each end.

The bar bent up and down because its mass was unaffected by lunar gravity. This means that inertia and momentum remained the same. It was
easier to overcome the inertia when lifting it because less force was required due to lessened gravity, but once it was flying upward, the momentum
was the same as on Earth. This is what caused the bar to bend, not the "weight" on either end, but the mass.

Your quick and on the ball DJ il give you that. They must be paying you well mate.

I don't quite get what your point is here. Are you saying the astronaut was rigged up with a wire, on the actual moon? Isn't that ridiculously
complicated?

The question of the dust in the 'air', just to make sure we all understand each other, is that if it was filmed on earth, dust would suspend in the
atmosphere for a short time. If you look, it does not suspend at all, it just does its little parabolic arc straight back to the surface. Therefore,
it was filmed in no air.
I'm still not clear if you understand that or not because you haven't expressed yourself well, just lashed out with insults. Calm down dude, this is
not Call of Duty.

What do you mean by this...?

Wouldn't that require some pretty extensive special effects work to cover up, especially because of the fact that small clip is part of a much longer
continuous shot?
